Subject: Churchill Revisited

First of all, I want to thank the people who created this collection. It is indeed a wonderful public collection.
Secondly, I'm not going to claim that Churchill wore panties. I have no idea if he did or didn't and I don't see what it matters anyway. Churchill was the best wartime leader the British could have had, but, please remember, that Winston Churchill was so "gung ho" about the British Empire he 1) sent the Black & Tans over to Ireland. 2) Refused talking to Gandhi and the other Indian Leaders about India Independence 3) Carved up the Middle East into the form we all know and love so well these days. But I will give this collection a 5 star rating because it is a very good collection.

Subject: Thank you

He is my favorite historical figure of all time, an inspiration to me and my hero.

Reviewer: Louis Fazzi - - August 23, 2022
Subject: Never more important

Hearing Mr. Churchill as he lead the British people during the greatest war ever fought shows how great leaders are the product of their times. We are so fortunate to have had such great leaders at that time.

Subject: Once Again

As I hear many of the Churchill Speeches for the first time I believe that we allow the same history to continually repeat itself. It is stunning that we are allowing history to repeat itself when we can actually listen into the past and learn from it.

Subject: Nonsense

There is an awful lot of nonsense and unverified claims and suggestions among the reviews. Please would people actually think before posting nonsense, such as "....he wore panties." This is actually an immensely useful archive collection. I have listened with great care over the time it has been available and find nothing which is questionable regarding the content.

Subject: Remove comments

Maybe we should leave the comments and not remove them. After all that's one of the reasons why churchill fought the war. Free speech. Even though the comments are by a stupid cunt.

Reviewer: sjtbiz - - May 4, 2019
Subject: Moderator Needed

This is a great collection, however it needs a chronological reference, as it relates to events of that time.

Second would you please REMOVE the troll comments, they are neither credible or wanted.

Reviewer: Out of Stone - - September 14, 2014
Subject: All in one place.

The Churchill Estate (as well as British Institutions like BBC, British Library and British Pathe that don't allow downloads) are extremely possessive of archive material. There is a substantial amount of British pre-1950 spoken word recordings from the arts, to politicians to royalty - nearly all were put onto 78s for public consumption, so it's OUR heritage. Yet there's no single accessible source for them - they're spread all over the place, so it's good that these Churchill recordings, at least, are freely available.

Reviewer: Ramsden - - January 9, 2013
Subject: Several Issues

1) May I suggest that someone edit these reviews and remove the especially moronic ones.

2) May I suggest attaching dates to these speeches. They are random rather than chronological.

3) Thank you Poe for at least one intelligent appraisal of Churchill's stature.

4) I'm reading "Winston's War" presently and it is very good (historical fiction).

Reviewer: Poe1809 - - August 25, 2011
Subject: .

These speeches show what a brilliant and prescient man the world had in Winston Churchill. It is truly tragic that, like so many before and after, people refused to believe his words until too late. Fortunately, there was a happy ending to the story, but not before millions died. Were his words heeded, one must wonder what the outcome might have been.

Frankly my dear, that's utter bullshit!

Reviewer: Tollundism - - April 12, 2011
Subject: Churchill wore panties.

I heard Churchill wore panties, is this true?

Reviewer: Mega Zit - - April 12, 2011
Subject: Is it him

Are you sure that all of these are actualy WC as a lot of the radio broadcasts during the war were by an actor
